Uber drives in to C-U area
Community welcomed the app-based taxi service Sunday BY JANE LEE STAFF WRITER
There’s a new taxi service in town to rival the traditional yellow cab. Uber, the app-based taxi service that has been around in Illinois since 2011, officially launched its uberX service for Champaign-Urbana on Sunday at an event held at
Research Park’s Enterprise Works. Uber Illinois Managing Director Chris Taylor, Governor Bruce Rauner and Champaign Mayor Don Gerard were among those present at the event. “This was a wonderful event that recognizes Governor Rauner’s leadership in creating a great home for technology and renovation in Illinois, and also the University of Illinois in UrbanaChampaign, for welcoming a new service in and creating a great home for innovation,” Taylor said. Using the Uber app, rid-
ers can see available Uber cars in their area, including a profile of the driver showing a photo, a rating, the license plate number and car make and model. Upon arrival at his or her location, the rider is billed online through credit card transaction. Uber currently operates within 280 major cities across the nation. Before Sunday, Uber services in Illinois were only operated in Chicago and Springfield. At noon on Sunday, the company added four new locations as official operating centers: Aurora, BloomingtonNormal, Champaign-Urbana
and Rockford. Uber provides five types of ride options for customers at varying prices, with uberX being the least expensive. Taylor said the purpose of launching their service in Champaign-Urbana is to provide safe rides for people who want them. “We’re growing incredibly rapidly, and that’s really fueled by the fact that we provide a service that people like and enjoy,” Taylor said. Because the ChampaignUrbana community is heavily populated with students

Weekend tournament a success for Illini
Both men’s and women’s teams finish with 2-1 records BY LUCAS WRIGHT STAFF WRITER

Parking department launches Master Plan BY JANE LEE STAFF WRITER
Parking on campus can be a hassle, which is something the University’s Parking Department is taking into consideration while developing its new Master Plan for parking developments on campus for the next 10 years. The department kicked off ideas for the plan at a
Jan. 22 meeting. Michelle Wahl, director of Parking, said currently, with 147 parking facilities and five structures, there are approximately 16,000 parking spaces available at the University. There are approximately 1,600 students and approximately 9,000 faculty members with parking permits, she said, and these numbers
The Illinois men’s and women’s wheelchair basketball teams each finished 2-1 during its home tournament this weekend at the ARC. The Illini men opened up the tournament Friday with a favorable matchup against Edinboro. Illinois took a 29-16 lead at the half and never looked back. The team finished off the Fighting Scots en route to a 44-36 win. The big matchup Friday featured the Illini men’s team taking on Missouri, when Illinois and the Tigers both got off to a slow start. The Illini were plagued with foul trouble and had to sit senior Nik Goncin, a key contributor, throughout most of the first half. Sophomore Ryan Neiswender stepped up and added 10 points in the half to give them a 21-20 lead at halftime. Illinois was still shaky throughout the beginning of the second half, but the Illini hit their stride when Goncin got going around the 10-minute mark. Goncin scored 16 of the team’s 32 second-half points, to lead it to a 53-46 victory over the rival Tigers. “When (Goncin’s) hitting, he’s a really great leader out there and pushes the team,” coach Matt Buchi said.

Salaita FOIA lawsuit upheld BY CAMILLE MURRAY STAFF WRITER
Judge Chase Leonhard ruled on Friday to not dismiss Steven Salaita’s Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the University during a hearing at the Champaign County Courthouse. Salaita himself was not present at the 2:30 p.m. hearing, but was represented by attorney Anand Swaminathan of Chicago law firm Loevy & Loevy. In the lawsuit, first filed on Nov. 17, Salaita claimed the University had violated the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, which requires public bodies to disclose specific records unless those records fall under exemption. The University attempted to dismiss Salaita’s lawsuit, arguing that because the initial FOIA request was filed by the Center for Constitutional Rights, Salaita had no standing to sue the University. Swaminathan argued
against the University’s assertion, stating the letter to the University made it clear the center was representing Salaita. Judge Leonhard ruled the case would be able to move forward, but also granted the University’s motion to strike certain paragraphs from the lawsuit that were not necessary. According to Swaminathan, the stricken paragraphs discussed issues such as the principles of the constitution, academic freedom and shared governance that applied to Salaita’s case. It also discussed the reaction of academics, students and the public to his rejected appointment, including mention of academic boycotts, votes of no confidence in the administration and media interest. Salaita was offered a tenured position in the American Indian studies program in October 2013; however, after posting tweets regarding con-
flict in Gaza, Salaita was notified on Aug. 1 that the Board of Trustees was unlikely to approve his appointment. On Sept. 11, the board rejected Salaita in an 8-1 vote and released a statement in January stating their decision is final. Salaita’s filed the FOIA request on Sept. 17, six days after his appointment was rejected. The University responded to the request and urged Salaita to narrow it. “The University has said it’d be too burdensome to have to turn over these records despite the tremendous public interest, and we say that’s wrong,� Swaminathan said. “Under the freedom of information laws, these records really belong to the public and should be disclosed to the public.� On Oct. 15, Salaita issued a new request, which asked for emails between 15 University officials over a three-month period,
according to the lawsuit. The University again orally rejected the request, stating it would require reviewing between 8,000 to 10,000 emails. Salaita responded by reducing the time frame to two months and claims he never received a response. In a previous interview with The Daily Illini, Campus Spokeswoman Robin Kaler said although Salaita had not received the emails requested, he was involved in ongoing conversation with the University’s lawyers. Swaminathan said the next step in the lawsuit is for Salaita to file an amended complaint that excludes the stricken paragraphs, which will be done next week. The University will then have 14 days to respond to the complaint. Another hearing is scheduled for April 13.

FBI head calls for reducing racial bias among officers WASHINGTON — Weighing in on the issue of police and race relations, FBI Director James B. Comey said Thursday that because patrol officers generally spend most of their time dealing with criminals, they may have a hard time believing that someone “could be innocent.� Comey, speaking at Georgetown University here, noted that most police calls for service come from poor,
minority communities. But black or white, he said, “criminal suspects routinely lie about their guilt, and the people we charge are overwhelmingly guilty. ‌ That makes it easy for folks in law enforcement to assume that everybody is lying and that no suspect, regardless of their race, could be innocent.â€? “Easy,â€?

FRESHMEN matically fallen since the ‘80s. Experts are starting to think this directly correlates to students’ health because instead of relaxing, they spend their extra time focusing on school. Additionally, with the increasing use of social media, freshmen social skills are at an all-time low. Time students usually spent on a night out with friends socializing is now either made up of studying or surfing the Internet. Lauren Pustulka, a freshman in DGS, said on average in high school she went out five or less hours a week, meaning that she fell into the same amount of partying as 91.4 percent of the incoming freshman. She agreed that previous generations went out more but does not think her social skills have suffered because of it. “They could have been better if I wasn’t surrounded by social media and Facebook,� Pustul-

ka said. “Instead of hanging out with my friends, I would be texting or on the Internet, and even when I was hanging out with my friends, we would be texting other people.� When asked about her study habits, Pustulka said they had decreased since coming to college. While Pustulka doesn’t currently suffer from depression, at certain points in her life, pressures have made her feel this way. Dr. Robert Palinkas, director of McKinley Health Center, said that while there has been a steady increase in requests for counseling services at the University, he doesn’t believe pressure on current freshmen for higher career aspirations has had a more negative effect on their socialization and mental health than that of freshmen before them. “I think all college students have robust aspirations, even those from previous generations,� he said in an email. “Distress is likely to come from many different directions.�
Dr. Carla McCowan, director of the Counseling Center, said it would be difficult to pinpoint the cause of feelings of depression. McCowan believes academics, finances, social media and social activity are causes that may lead freshmen to have higher mental and emotional distress. “Students today have tremendous pressures ... in many ways society is far more complex than it was 20 years ago,� she said in an email. “Every student copes differently, so while increasing social activity may be helpful for some, it may increase stress for others.� Palinkas said the standard advice to students in managing their time between socializing and studying is balance and moderation. He said students should avoid overdoing any one aspect of life. In her experience, McCowan said she has seen cases where distress does not prevent students from enjoying their time at the University. “I see many students that
have an absolutely incredible experience at Illinois, even if they went through a period of emotional distress and were able to successfully navigate their way to the other side,� she said, “Happiness is determined by a lot of things and hopefully, learning about one’s own journey toward happiness is occurring in college.� McCowan said the Counseling Center works to promote an overall sense of wellness, not just psychological or emotional, with balance being an essential component. Both Pa li nkas a nd McCowan urged students to use the services provided to them by the University. The Counseling Center is open Monday-Friday from 7:50 a.m. to 5 p.m. and appointments can be made by calling (217) 3333704. If a student is in crisis and in need of an urgent appointment, they may walk in for an emergency appointment.
9-of-12 shooting, and Kendra Zeman added 14. The final game of the tour na ment fe atured the Illini men’s team against its biggest rival: Wisconsin-Whitewater. Illinois opened the game on a tear, with Goncin and Neiswender each knocking down early threes, but the success was short-lived. The Illini once again got into foul trouble and put the Warhawks in the bonus halfway through the first half. Goncin scored 19 points
throughout the first and led the Illini to a three-point lead at the half, 35-32. The Illini lost the lead early in the second half due to more foul trouble and to the Warhawks’ size inside. Illinois could not compete in the post, and UW-W went on to beat the Illini 72-60. Goncin finished with 31 points in his final home game for the Illini. Neiswender added 17 in the loss. Despite the tough loss, Buchi was pleased overall with his team’s play
and with the quality of the tournament. “We loved the turnout that we had and for us we played really well,� Buchi said. “We hit some major strides, and I think communication and making the individual reads and small adjustments is what we need to work on, which is great for us at this point of the season.�
ers have already passed Uber’s local, state and federal background checks to drive in the new Illinois service locations. Mayor Gerard expressed his excitement for the new transportation contribution to Champaign and said the service would provide great public safety and commerce. “It’s really a forward thinking 21st century option to transportation,� Gerard said. “I mean, Champaign really is a big town with big
cities amenities, and this just adds to it.� As liquor commissioner, Gerard said one of the biggest things he worries about in terms of public safety is drunk driving, and he believes services like Uber may help keep students safe. Laura Frerichs, director of Research Park, said Uber would help show that using technology can help ease people’s everyday lives. To her, it’s a way to show off Champaign-Urbana as a tech-
friendly destination. “We are excited that Uber launched services here because as a micro urban community, having that type of service makes us feel like a big city and it’s important for our students and our visitors to be able to have something that they’re used to h aving in larger communities here in Urbana-Champaign as well,� Frerichs said.
tures undergo preventative maintenance, called evasive testing. Wahl said after the study was conducted, the department received a report and had some structural concerns. They then requested another report for an investigation in 2012. “We found that C-7 and C-10 are coming close to the end of their life,� Wahl said. “It was time for us to take a look at them, digest the report thoroughly and understand that we needed to start this process sooner to, hopefully, if possible, recover those parking spaces in my inventory.� Farber said lots C-7 and C-10 are a major concern that will be addressed, though no decisions have been made yet and will be discussed with the Master Plan.
“We’ll need to be thinking about what the short-term and long-term solutions will be for both the permit holders and users of those facilities and also what new options and alternatives will be available to us,� Farber said. He added that the department is asking consultants to take those factors into consideration as they work with the lots. Robert Olshansky, head of the department of urban and regional planning, said the purpose of the Master Plan is to provide access to the overall campus community. “You want to provide longer-term parking,� Olshansky said. “You want to have opportunities for short term parking that are closer in to the center and the pricing you need to figure out.�
He said often when people discuss transportation planning, they lose sight of those larger purposes. What is most important, he said, is access and accessibility.

Request for proposal process and funding The Parking Department will collaborate with Walker Parking Consultants on the Master Plan. Wahl said the department selected the consulting firm eight months ago and recently signed the contract. “We went through an RFP (request for proposal) process, selected a consultant based on their experiences, being at multiple institutions, their parking experience, and assisting people like myself, as the director

Oregon Governor’s actions ‘bizarre and unprecedented’ SALEM, Ore. — The saga of embattled Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber, who is under investigation for alleged ethical lapses, took yet another strange twist Thursday. Less than 24 hours after
Kitzhaber said he would not resign over allegations of wrongdoing by him and his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, Oregon Secretary of State Kate Brown released a statement calling the situation “bizarre and unprecedented.�
Ukraine cease-fire agreed but doubts if it will bring peace MOSCOW — After two days of hard negotiations, the leaders of Russia, Ukraine, Germany and France announced Thursday that they had crafted a new peace plan for eastern Ukraine but the accord was immediately met with skepticism over its power to end the war. The four leaders worked for seven hours Wednesday night then through the morning Thursday to get Russian and Ukrainian commitment to the plan that would halt hostilities within three days, require removal of heavy weaponry from
the battle zones and restore Ukrainian control over its Russian border by the end of this year. Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the agreement in a televised statement after the talks in the Belarus capital of Minsk. He hailed the plan’s promise of granting greater autonomy to separatistoccupied regions of eastern Ukraine but made no mention of its omission of a key Kremlin demand that Ukraine be transformed into a loose federation with a weakened central government in Kiev.
Cairo judge orders 2 Al Jazeera journalists freed on bail CAIRO — A Cairo judge Thursday ordered the release on bail of two journalists for Al Jazeera English at the start of their retrial on terrorism-related charges. Mohamed Fahmy and Baher Mohamed have spent more than 13 months in jail. Their Australian colleague, Peter Greste, was released and deported last
week. The case has been closely watched by human rights groups and media advocacy organizations. The arrest of the three journalists came amid a wide-ranging crackdown on opponents of the Egyptian government, and their supporters said the charges were politically motivated and an attack on media freedom.
Israeli election panel disqualifies Arab, ultranationalist candidates JERUSALEM — Israel’s central elections committee Thursday disqualified a firebrand Arab lawmaker and a Jewish ultranationalist candidate from running for parliament next month on grounds of supporting terror and racism. The 34-member commit-

of the department, to come up with great solutions to have a better parking experience,� Wahl said. Farber hopes working with external consultants will bring different perspectives to the plan. As of now, the funding for the new Master Plan is still in consideration, but both Farber and Wahl said it is possible the price of parking may increase. “We’ll need to have an understanding of what the expenses will be and then how those expenses will be recouped,� Farber said. “You can’t use state funding to support parking structures or parking facilities or parking operations. All of that money will have to come from other funding sources.�
Farber also said the department is not trying to prejudge what solutions they will come up with through the Master Planning process. “It’s difficult to know what sorts of budget implications or costs or savings will be associated with that because we haven’t even begun to think about those solutions,� he said. “We’re trying to look at this with as much of a blank slate as possible.� However, both Farber and Wahl said it is possible the price of parking will increase due to the expenses related to the Master Plan.

Media organizations have a duty to the people, not public figures
As
students and journalists, knowing the ins and outs of what goes on at our University is important. Whether that means knowing where our money is going, what is happening with regards to administration, or who is coming to campus, we like to know it all. Requesting information under the Freedom of Information Act helps us do that. The act allows us to legally obtain this information and doing so allows us to gain better insight about happenings on our campus. The information and transparency of FOIA content is open to everyone. Earlier this month, The Oklahoma Daily, the student newspaper at the University of Oklahoma, published a copy of the contract between musician Jack White and the university. This contract revealed that the University of Oklahoma spent $80,000 to get White to perform on campus. The contract also listed very specific requests from White, who demanded that the University of Oklahoma not allow a single banana in his sight. Homemade guacamole, in contrast, had to be in the band’s dressing room, and the contract even included a recipe. While it did not contain any ground-breaking revelations or university information, the contract included an overwhelming amount of information about White’s food preferences; having this information also allowed students to have some perspective about the money that goes into bringing famous people to campus and the type of accommodations requested by campus visitors. White got upset about this request and the publication of his contract information. Because of it, he said he would never again play at the University of Oklahoma. However, White later wrote a letter about the incident and said he would be open to play at the university again in the future. We support The Oklahoma Daily. The newspaper did nothing wrong. In fact, it performed a public service. As students and taxpayers, we deserve to know what our tuition money and tax dollars are spent on — whether it’s a professor’s salary or how much money a musician is bringing in. While musicians like White may get upset about their contracts being published, their interests do not outweigh the interest of those paying for it. A media organization has an obligation to the public, not to public figures like White. White may never go to the University of Oklahoma again, but if he comes to the University of Illinois, he can expect the exact same treatment, the same skepticism and the same watchdogging of public money. We hope that other student newspapers don’t back away from their duty to the public in the face of pressure from powerful individuals.

40 YEARS OF LAUGHS
I-L-L!
When it comes to recent seasons of the TV classic “Saturday Night Live,� we think it’s really a hit or miss in regards to the show’s level of humor. For many of us, the laughs just haven’t been as hearty without more cowbell and our favorite Target lady, and we miss watching Jimmy Fallon try to hide the fact that he was cracking up during sketches. However, regardless of its recent lackluster, SNL holds a special little spot in all of our hearts, which is why we were all super excited to celebrate 40 years of the show during its three-hour special last night. It was a perfect, delicious stew made with the beautiful combination of classic comedy vegetables with a dash of special guest stars. To our beloved SNL, take it up a notch this season, but don’t worry, we still love you forever. XO

We love any and all opportunities to praise University sports and our peers who play, and we love seeing stadiums filled with rowdy students and Illini orange. Granted, the opinions editors don’t have any first-hand, front-row insight about any of the awesome plays or killer shots during the game because we were not able to attend, so we will leave all the fun, nitty-gritty details of the basketball win to the sports section.

NORTH WEST: SPIRIT ANIMAL
REST IN PEACE, DAVID CARR
Well guys, Nori is not having it this week. We don’t know who decided New York Fashion Week would be a good place for a small child to have a playdate with Nicki Minaj, but this kid is making sure her opinions are heard via wailing in the front row and plenty of paparazzi shots. The only pictures we’ve seen of little West at fashion week have been her struggling to get away from Kim K. while crying her eyes out — meanwhile Kim just sort of sits there stoically. We get it North — if we were being held by Kim Kardashian or being forced to watch Kanye’s fashion show, we would probably have the same reaction.
This past Thursday, David Carr, a New York Times media columnist, and “the finest media reporter of his generation,� passed away due to complications with lung cancer after collapsing in the NYT newsroom. Carr was hailed as an excellent journalist and met with popularity and acclaim. He also published a riveting memoir which recounted struggles he faced in his life, including drug addiction. Carr is also credited with launching the career of Lena Dunham as well as being a journalistic and humanistic role model for people around the globe. And for that, we thank him greatly.
Dry your tears: Life after ‘The Daily Show’ BOSWELL HUTSON Opinions columnist
In
2007, Pew Research Center, one of the most renowned polling entities in the world, did a survey to find out which journalistic medium’s viewers (or readers) were most knowledgeable. This was based on a set of political questions like “Who is our current Speaker of the House?� and “Is the Chief Justice conservative?� The most knowledgeable people on the list were unsurprising: people who regularly read newspapers or watch “NewsHour with Jim Lehrer� on PBS are, on average, more knowledgeable than those who watch 24-hour networks like CNN or Fox News. This is because those 24-hour networks’ seemingly have the sole purpose of inundating their audiences with “breaking news.� What is surprising about this list, however, is that the top spot — the news medium with the most knowledgeable audience — is occupied by a television show which doesn’t even claim to be news: “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.� Though this probably goes without saying, “The Daily Show� is a satirical news program which oftentimes mocks or makes direct attacks at mainstream media from a fairly strong, left-wing perspective. While the idea of the show sounds silly, the satirical pro-
gram is no stranger to praise. In 2012, former legendary ABC newsman Ted Koppel described Jon Stewart (and his protege of sorts, Stephen Colbert) by saying: “They don’t pretend to be journalists. They are doing a better job than the real journalists.� At first glance, such praise from lauded industry professionals seems confusing, especially because “The Daily Show� seeks to mock everything about the 24-hour news cycle. There’s an element of truth to every joke, and the writers at “The Daily Show� have done a phenomenal job of weaving humor in with serious political problems, with Jon Stewart at the helm. However, last week, Stewart announced his retirement from “The Daily Show� to the sounds of sobbing liberals all over the country (myself included). Seeing as this is the show with the most knowledgeable fan-base apparently, Stewart’s departure raises the question of where left-wing, biased news will come from, and doubts about whether or not the knowledge levels will stay up to par. Left-wing approaches to current events, some would say, are usually over-hyperbolic and broad in their framing of issues and sometimes tend to lack rationality, but Jon Stewart was an exception. From his very culturally important interviews with Barack Obama, Malala Yousafzai and John McCain to his constant sparring with Bill O’Reilly, Stewart has proved that “The Daily Show� is much
more than entertainment. It has instead provided us with an opportunity to engage with the news in a unconventional and effective way. The 24-hour news period which currently dominates mainstream media is one of the more sickening products of the digital age. The current trend of many news sources is that events are made out to be “breaking news� to generate interest, and thus, viewership for a television station or news outlet which seeks profit. As a college student, this influx of information is starting to take its toll, and it seems like my generation has become more and more disinterested in the news simply because there is so much of it, and that which is easily accessible is usually sensationalized. Perhaps Jon Stewart’s show is so popular because it bucks this trend and is only on for half an hour, four days a week, and thus can’t saturate audiences like CNN or MSNBC can. Maybe “The Daily Show’s� audience just finds it easier to pay attention for such a short time slot. By interweaving stark social commentary with humor and rationality, “The Daily Show’s� ability to be simultaneously hilarious and poignant makes it appeal to viewers who have an interest beyond the scrolling script on the bottom of the television screen or endless talking heads. I’m not sure what I’m going to do when “The Daily Show� goes off of the air — I may just result to living the life
By interweaving stark social commentary with humor and rationality, “The Daily Show’s� ability to be simultaneously hilarious and poignant makes it appeal to viewers. of a caveman with no knowledge of the outside world. Sure, Jon Stewart will probably be replaced by someone funny, but I doubt it will it be the same. What I am sure of, however, is that during its run thus far, “The Daily Show� has been the best news program I’ve watched, and if you look beyond the jokes within the writing, there are extremely important topics being talked about in a very serious context. Maybe someone like John Oliver will fill my Daily Showless heart, but until then, I’ll just have to cherish what I have left, because nothing gold can stay.

FLORIST year. “(The flowers) are coming in and going out!” she said. Robin Shin, junior in LAS, came to the store Wednesday for the second year in a row to order roses for his girlfriend. “You just know you don’t want to get things last minute,” he explained. Picking up the bouquet on Saturday around noon, Shin said the flowers looked nice and was the perfect gift for his girlfriend. “I chose flowers because she always says flowers are one of her favorite gifts,” he said. “I think they’re just something nice to give or receive on Valentine’s Day.” Johnston said that the most popular flowers on Valentine’s Day are roses, but nowadays people like unique arrangements as well. Freesias are one of her
favorite flowers to make arrangements with and, although they are usually unavailable this time of year, she was able to get them for the holiday. In addition, the store has a variety of other flowers in many color variations, including carnations, hydrangeas, roses and lilies. At Campus Florist, orders began piling up weeks ago from their website, by telephone and walk-in. When they begin to get really busy, Johnston said they close orders on the website and only allow phone calls and walk-ins. For employee Rebecca Jung, freshman in LAS, the Valentine’s Day season has been a learning experience as she has only worked at Campus Florist for two weeks. “It was overwhelming. I’ve honestly never seen so many flowers in my life, but it’s fun,” Jung said. “We have a lot of co-workers
that help.” Johnston admitted that her favorite part of Valentine’s Day is the beginning and the end. She said that dealing with the stress of the day can be hard, but you learn to live with it. Despite the stress, she has happy memories of working the holiday, such as when a campus a capella group came to sing to her two years ago. “When I parked my car, they sang me some songs ... that is something I’ll never forget,” she said. Johnston and co-workers spent Sunday cleaning up the aftermath of the chaotic day and decorating the store with the new spring selection. As they put away the love-themed decorations, the end of Valentine’s Day had finally come — until next year.

WWI they could train their men. “The University of Illinois was a logical place to do some of that training because it had the facilities,” Maher said. “Therefore, they were bringing in thousands of young men to train them in how to fly a plane, how to repair planes, how to do other kinds of things.” A second floor was then built inside the Armory, which was made into a barracks for the men to sleep in.
Memorial Stadium was built to honor those from the University who lost their lives in World War I. Columns on the east and west sides of the building are inscribed with the names of 183 men and one woman, a nurse, who died in the war. A plaque was made listing the names of donors who pledged money for the columns. Winton Solberg, historian and retired history professor at the University, said one column honored Curtis G. Redden, an Illinois native who graduated from the University of Michigan and commanded the 149th Artillery, Battery F, which consisted of men from Illinois. The stadium was completed in 1923, and a dedication ceremony took place in 1924. In his speech, thenUniversity President David Kinley said the sacrifice of those who had lost their lives made the structure “holy.” Solberg described the address as a “quasireligious speech” that saw

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
MILWAUKEE — When Justin Johnson was hired in 2012 to help revamp a hospital’s cafeteria to emphasize scratch food and sustainable operations, he was skeptical whether the concept would work. Now, Johnson is starting his own company, which aims to do the same thing: use less processed food and increase revenue. “I discovered it was a lot easier than I thought,” he said. “A lot of times, the roadblocks were imagined or easy to overcome. There’s a lot you can do for a little.” Johnson’s work can include changing menus and recipes, overhauling kitchen systems to be more efficient, training staff — even installing garden space for businesses to make their own produce. His startup, called Sustainable Kitchens, will specialize in helping health care kitchens. It also underscores a wider trend in the food industry for healthier, more natural
meals. Gretchen Mead, executive director of the Victory Garden Initiative and a member of the Milwaukee Food Council, said she’s seen a growing interest among food services in the area to use food from scratch, with a handful of commercial kitchens grabbing produce from their backyards and at farmers markets. “People are realizing it’s the way of the future,” Mead said. “They are seeing how foods are affecting their health. There’s almost a sense of conspiracy, like ‘What did they put in my food?’” Mead’s seen sustainable food managing programs come and go over the past couple of years, but as a consultative business, Sustainable Kitchens is a relatively new idea. It’s also a concept that could be attractive for businesses that want to revamp their food services but without the financial resources needed to hire top-line chefs.
Even though Johnson only started moving on the idea in December, he already has begun working with a few undisclosed restaurants in metro Milwaukee. “I started getting enough calls and I thought, ‘I might have something here,’” Johnson said. Johnson resigned from his hospital job to focus on his new company, hoping to capitalize on the success he’s had at the hospital. During his time there, he retrained the staff, moved to an all-scratch-food cooking model and created an 11,000-square-foot garden that supports most of the kitchen’s vegetable needs during the growing seasons. The approach not only cut costs for the hospital, he said, but also integrated the staff into the earlier steps of preparing food and invested them more in the end result. Johnson already has two restaurants and a health center as clients to implement similar strategies in the coming months.

Even on the Wednesday before, buckets of flowers for the upcoming Valentine's Day arrangements filled Campus Florist, located at 609 E. Green St. in Champaign.

Wednesday afternoon, the sky was a gray overcast and the freezing wind chilled the herds of parkadonned students walking to class. But inside Campus Florist, a flower shop on Green Street, red hearts strung from the ceiling and buckets of colorful flowers covered the room, perfuming the air. Behind the glass door and bright blossoms, employees were busy creating arrangements, taking orders by phone and helping customers fi nd the perfect bouquet, vase and other accessories
for Valentine’s Day. For owner Anne Johnston, who opened Campus Florist in 1941, this is the usual atmosphere of the store in the days before the romantic holiday, the busiest time of the year for fresh flower purchases. This is in accordance with The National Retail Federation’s Valentine’s Day Consumer Spending Survey, which projected that 37.8 percent of consumers spent $2.1 billion on flowers for Valentine’s Day. On this particular Saturday holiday, Johnston said business had an unusual challenge when the store’s power went out at 3:30 p.m. During the hourlong outage, employees dressed warmly against the cold while keeping the door open to continue business, but not many people came in during the late afternoon. And still, by that time, the shop had already hit their peak
sales for the holiday. Johnston said it will take about a week to know the exact numbers, but this year’s Valentine’s was another success. “It’s over with — the good and the bad,� she said. Johnston explained that even in the midst of Illinois winters, they are able to get flowers shipped from Holland, Cuba and other places around the world. Although she said they never run out of flowers at the store, she recommends customers pick up their orders early for the freshest picks. Sometimes during winter months, getting the flowers to the store can be difficult, especially if there is a freeze or a lot of snow. But Johnston said this has not been a problem this

A centennial look back on campus life during World War I BY ABRAR AL-HEETI STAFF WRITER
One hundred years ago, much of the world was caught up in the affairs of World War I. Stories featured in local newspapers published before and after the U.S. involvement in 1917 reflected Americans’ concern and interest in the conflict. Articles in The Daily Illini from 1914 referenced professors and students who visited Europe but were taken by surprise when they found themselves in the midst of a war that was beginning to take place.
Articles from that time also chronicled the changes and growth taking place locally. The University and the cities of Champaign and Urbana were expanding, and new buildings were being constructed. Buildings pertaining to military activities, such as the Armory, were erected, as well as recreational facilities like the Orpheum Theater. These few slices of local history from a century ago give a small glimpse into what was happening in Champaign-Urbana as the U.S. became involved in The
Great War.
The Armory, built in 1914 at Sixth and Armory streets, was not the first military training hub on campus. Before its completion, training took place in the “Military Drill Hall,� today known as the Kenney Gym Annex. “Part of the land grant mandate for the University called for there to be military training for all male students, so that’s why we had to have an armory so units could do marching formation
(and) learn how to use artillery,� said Bill Maher, University archivist. By the time World War I broke out, the University’s student body had expanded, and in turn, the Military Drill Hall was no longer big enough to serve its purpose and accommodate the growing number of men. Therefore, construction began on the current Armory. When the U.S. entered World War I, the military began looking all over the country for places where

Illini’s win streak comes to abrupt end JOEY FIGUEROA
Balanced play succeeds in charity game
Sports columnist
T
hose guys in Wisconsin are pretty good. Illinois learned that the hard way on Sunday afternoon. Extending its winning streak to five games with a win over the No. 5 team in the country proved to be too large of a task for the Illinois basketball team (17-9, 7-6 Big Ten) as they fell to the Badgers (232, 11-1) 68-49 in Madison, Wisconsin. Following Thursday’s win over Michigan, Illinois’ depth looked like one of its strongest assets. In Sunday’s loss, it was Wisconsin that dominated with its spread-out scoring attack. Of course, Frank Kamin-

In front of what might have been its largest home crowd of the season, the Illinois women’s basketball team pulled off a 66-55 victory over Ohio State on Saturday. Fans piled into State Farm Center on a cold Valentine’s Day afternoon to watch the Illini play in their annual Play 4Kay charity game, and Illinois did not disappoint. Rocking all-pink jerseys in honor of breast cancer awareness, the Illini took a balanced and disciplined approach to pick up their fourth conference win of the season. “(It was a) great win for our team and our program,� head coach Matt Bollant said. “After a couple tough losses, we needed this one.� Illinois (13-13, 4-10 Big Ten) had lost its previous two games heading into Saturday. On Friday, senior guard Ivory Crawford said she had a good feeling about the matchup with the Buckeyes (17-9, 9-5) and took it into her hands to bring the Illini back into the win column. Following a fourpoint first half, Crawford took over the second half on both ends of the floor. “In close games, you need players to step up and make plays,� Bollant said. “There were several plays where the game was on the line where she just drove it hard and made big plays for us.�

Strong pitching propels Illini to weekend sweep BY PETER BAILEY-WELLS ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
Strong pitching was much talked about during the Illinois baseball team’s offseason, and strong pitching was the reason the Illini emerged unscathed from their opening weekend of play. Illinois (4-0) took down New Mexico State (0-4) and Lamar (2-2) in the Lamar Cardinal Classic over the weekend in Beaumont, Texas. The Aggies presented a much tougher opponent for the Illini, forcing two lategame surges from Illinois to secure wins on Friday and Saturday. It took 10 innings Friday night, but the Illini came back from a 1-0 deficit in the top of the ninth inning to win their season opener 5-1. Illinois scattered 13 hits across the 10 innings, high-
lighted by senior David Kerian, who recorded three hits, scored the tying run in the ninth and knocked in the go-ahead run in the top of the 10th. “In the dugout, our attitude was the same the whole game,� Kerian said. “We were hitting the ball hard all game, and we finally just found the holes in those later innings. We knew we were making good contact.� Sophomore reliever Cody Sedlock got the win for Illinois, striking out two over 2 1/3 innings of work. One constant for Illinois over the weekend was the starting rotation, which lived up to high preseason expectations. Game one starter senior Drasen Johnson gave up only two hits in 6 1/3 innings, but didn’t get a decision. Game two starter senior Rob McDonnell fanned a
career-high 10 batters, but like Johnson, picked up a nodecision after the Illini fell behind 2-1 in the eighth. Sophomore Ryne Roper was the hero for the Illini on Saturday morning, driving in two runs on three hits, including a go-ahead tworun single in the bottom of the ninth. Preseason AllAmerican Tyler Jay picked up his first save of the season, and the Illini won 4-2 to complete their two-game sweep of the Aggies. But of all the strong pitching performances for Illinois, senior John Kravetz might have turned in the best. Kravetz threw seven innings of no-hit ball Saturday afternoon against Lamar, finally exiting in the eighth with the Illini up 3-1. “It’s unbelievable, but they’re capable of throwing this well every weekend,� Jay said of the starting rota-

In its first time hosting a NWCA National Duals regional, the Illinois wrestling team (13-4, 6-3 Big Ten) began its postseason Sunday with a 38-0 victory over the Kent State Golden Flashes (7-13, 3-7 MAC). Posting their second-best margin of victory on the season, the Illini saw poise and aggression from their entire lineup for one of the first times this year. “I think everyone’s gotten better in spots,� head coach Jim Heffernan said. “Everyone has to be on the same page, wrestling to their best ability.

In his first career start, Jay picked up the win, throwing five scoreless innings, striking out five and giving up only two hits. Illinois cruised out to a 9-1 lead and gave up a pair of runs in the ninth before completing the perfect weekend with a 9-3 win.

Illinois football hires co-defensive coordinator from NFL Phair worked with Tampa Bay BY SEAN NEUMANN STAFF WRITER
Illinois announced Friday that Mike Phair will be the football team’s new codefensive coordinator and defensive line coach. Phair has spent the last 13 years in the NFL with the Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, and most recently the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Phair will work alongside Tim Banks, who has been Illinois’ defensive coordinator for three seasons. “I am extremely pleased to add someone of Coach Phair’s caliber to our coaching staff,� Illinois head coach Tim Beckman said in a press release. “He is established as one of the rising defensive line coaches in the profession and is greatly prepared to take on the role as our co-defensive coordinator. His work with
Lovie Smith, Coach (Marc) Trestman and Rod Marinelli has provided an incredible amount of experience.� Phair worked under Lovie Smith as the defensive line coach in Tampa Bay in 2014. Phair was the Bears defensive line coach from 2011-13, also under Smith and later Marc Trestman, where he coached Pro Bowlers Julius Peppers and Henry Melton. It was reported last month that Illinois was closing in on Missouri’s Craig Kuligowski to the same position; however, Kuligowski opted to stay at his current position. The Illini rushing defense was the worst in the Big Ten last season, allowing 239.2 yards per game. Overall, the team’s total defense was the worst in the conference, allowing 456.4 yards per game and 34 points per game.

Late breakdowns prove costly for Illini BY LAUREN MROZ STAFF WRITER
The Illinois softball team finished all five of its games within one run over the weekend but pulled out only two wins. Illinois spent its second weekend of play in Starkville, Mississippi, where it participated in the February Freezer. Head coach Terri Sullivan’s team started off the weekend with a doubleheader Friday, dropping two one-run decisions to Tennessee-Martin and host Mississippi State. The Illini (3-7) led most of the way through the weekend opener against UTM, but a late-inning comeback ended in a walk-off single in the seventh inning that gave the Skyhawks a 6-5 victory. In the bottom of the sixth inning, Illinois gave up a three-run lead and headed into the seventh tied 5-5. Jade Vecvanags (0-1) replaced Shelese Arnold (2-4) on the mound for the Illini and surrendered the game-winning hit, which was UTM’s only lead of the game. In the second game of the day, Illinois trailed Mississippi State 8-2 heading into the sixth inning. Despite a
two-run sixth and a fourrun seventh, Illinois failed to complete the late-inning response. A sixth-inning, pinch-hit solo home run from Kate Giddens gave the Bulldogs all the runs they would need to down the Illini, 9-8. Illini sophomore Ruby Rivera said the loss to UTM was worse than a usual loss. “That pissed me off — to think that this team that no one has even heard about just came out the first day and killed us,” Rivera said. “It just seemed like we weren’t even ready to play, and it was really embarrassing.” The Illini split their two games Saturday, falling 3-2 to Louisiana Tech but beating Lamar, 6-5. Brittany Sanchez put the Illini up 2-1 over Louisiana Tech with an RBI single in the bottom of the fifth inning. But Lady Techster catcher Krysta Tutsch answered with a two-run home run in the sixth, handing the Illini their third straight one-run loss. Illinois out-hit Louisiana Tech 8-6, but continued to struggle in the clutch, leaving five runners in scoring position. Breanna Wonderly
allowed only one run on four hits and a walk in her five innings in the circle. Arnold replaced Wonderly for the final two innings and gave up Tutsch’s homer, in addition to two hits and a walk. Catcher Jess Perkins led the way for the Illini offense against Lamar, contributing a three-hit, three-RBI effort. Lamar threatened in the top of the third with two runners in scoring position, but centerfielder Carly Thomas made a diving catch on a ball off the bat of Brynn Baca in deep right-center to maintain the Illini lead. Trailing by three runs, Lamar’s Jenna Holland hit a leadoff triple in the top of the sixth. The Cardinals followed with four consecutive base hits, cutting the Illinois lead to 6-5 before Arnold managed three straight outs. Arnold bounced back from Friday’s loss and picked up her first win of the season. Despite a late-inning comeback by the Cardinals, Illinois secured the one-run victory. In Sunday’s finale, Illinois handed Mississippi State (9-1) its first loss of the season, knocking off the host, 4-3. The Illini scored all four of their runs in the first inning,

WBBALL day’s game averaging close to 26 points per game, so Illinois’ game plan was to slow her down from the start. Crawford said she just tried to focus on her own game, though. “I don’t look at other people’s games like that,” Crawford said. “You’ve just got to look at yourself and look at your team.” After trailing 30-29 at the half, the Illini came out of the locker room on the attack. Illinois built an eight-point lead behind 3-pointers by four dif-
strikeouts. Three Bulldog runners reached third base in the bottom of the fourth, but the Illini infield threw two runners out at the plate. “They are showing that resiliency again. We had a great finish today,” Sullivan said. “I think Saturday’s onerun victory was really big for this team. Every game on the weekend was a one-run game. As you get deeper into the season, you want to know that you can win those. It says a lot about a team.” Although her team finished 2-3 on the weekend, Sullivan

said that these early losses can have a positive effect on her team. “I believe that having our back against the wall in every game we played this weekend showed an awful lot of what the team is made of,” she said. “Having these types of game situations at this point in our season is going to prove to make us better and prepared.”

“When a shorthanded goal happens, it’s already pretty frustrating because we have an extra man, so we should be the ones scoring,” forward Eric Saulters said. “After those two goals, we kind of just lost our momentum.” The loss didn’t discourage Illinois in the series finale on Saturday. Despite giving up the first goal to the Bobcats in the second period, Illinois scored two goals in the second on shots from forwards Eric Saulters and Chris Lozinak to take a 2-1 lead. The Bobcats, however, didn’t back down and found the back of the net once again with less than five minutes to go, sending the game into overtime. With neither team able to finish off the other in extra time, the game was decided by a shootout. Illinois only needed one shootout goal from Eric Cruickshank as goaltender Zev Grumet-Morris stopped all three attempts from the Bobcats to seal the victory. The power play did Illinois in on Friday, when it failed to get anything going against Ohio’s stifling penalty kill. On Saturday, the momentum shifted in Illinois’ favor when Lozinak finally broke
through the defense to give the team the lead in the third period. “Friday night compared to Saturday was night and day,” forward Jacob Matysiak said. “I know that they had a certain type of penalty kill that was tough to break in the zone, but on Saturday night, guys stepped up and made plays.” Fabbrini said that this weekend was a good test for the Illini, who have struggled on the road all season. Even though the CSCHL tournament is going to be at home, they will still have to get accustomed to playing road battles if they want to compete for a national championship. “We have the mental fortitude to respond to challenges, and I’m sure there are going to be some at the league championship this weekend and then again at the national tournament,” Fabbrini said. “It’s going to be key for us to be able to overcome what other teams try to hit us with.”

every shot, making it seem like almost every possession ended with a desperation attempt as the shot clock ticked down. Once the Badgers ran away with the game in the second half, Illinois spent most of the time searching for scoring. Sophomore guard Kendrick Nunn couldn’t follow up his stellar 21-point performance on Thursday and was basically nonexistent Sunday, finishing with four points on 2-of-10 shooting. Rice brought nice intensity for the second-straight game, but his 4-of-12 shooting performance showed his rust coming off a nine-game absence. The Jaylon TateAhmad Starks point guard duo couldn’t get Illinois into
its offensive sets and combined for just four points and three assists. This wasn’t near the same type of all-around performance the Illini put together against Michigan. Following the loss, head coach John Groce was most disappointed with his team’s execution on the boards. Illinois was out-rebounded 32-25 and allowed 15 offensive rebounds, which proved to be detrimental against one of the most prolific offenses in the Big Ten. The Badgers’ work on the boards led to 12 secondchance points and made the Illini exert extra energy on defense that could have been spent on the offensive end.
Leron Black may have been able to remedy the rebounding situation, but he became the forgotten man after going to the bench with a couple of fouls early on. Kaminsky did most of his damage with a 17-point first half, during which the Illini kept the game close. Illinois did just enough to stay in the game until Wisconsin ripped off a 10-2 run to end the half. That run spilled over into the second half, and the Illini couldn’t pull within more than nine points for the remainder of the game. After a rare poor game against Michigan on Thursday, Hill was one of the lone bright spots amid the 19-point drubbing. His 15
points came on an efficient 5-of-7 shooting performance, the norm for the rising sophomore lately. Senior center Nnanna Egwu also found himself in a nice rhythm early, nailing a couple of turnaround shots in the post, but chasing around Kaminsky on the other end of the floor limited what he could do offensively. It’s games like these that have people questioning Illinois’ legitimacy this season. During its fourgame winning streak, Illinois only picked up a win against one team ranked in the top half in the Big Ten in scoring average. Of the Illini’s seven Big Ten wins this season, only three came against teams in
the top half of the Big Ten standings. With only two games remaining against teams in the upper-half of the Big Ten, the Illini won’t have many opportunities to prove they can hang with more quality teams. Illinois’ next opponent, Michigan State, is one of those teams, and with an impressive road win over the Spartans already this season, it will be important for Illinois to get back on track against them at home next Sunday. A week off might be just what Illinois needs to start a new winning streak.
ferent players to begin the half. The Buckeyes pulled within one with six minutes remaining, but junior guard Kyley Simmons answered with a long three to end the 11-2 Ohio State run. The Illini defense clamped down to allow just two points in the final five minutes, and Illinois pulled away for the final time. While it was clear Ohio State relied on Mitchell’s scoring late, Bollant was happy with Illinois’ balanced attack — four different Illini finished the game with doubledigit scoring. “Every game’s different, but certainly, we love having balance,” Bollant said.
“You’re harder to guard when you have different players that can step up and make plays.” Freshman center Chatrice White registered her fifth double-double of the season and now sits third all-time on Illinois’ freshman scoring list. With Saturday’s victory, Illinois has doubled its conference win total from a season ago and still has four games remaining on the Big Ten schedule.

Koepke had just upset Wisconsin’s No. 10 Timmy McCall only a week before Sunday. “He’s been building momentum and looks good,” Heffernan said. “He’s been really offensive in his wrestling lately and scored a bunch of points before he pinned the guy today.” The Illini will move on to the NWCA National Dual Finals in Iowa City, Iowa, this weekend to start the competition against either No. 2 Missouri or No. 5 Ohio State. The No. 5 Illini are 0-2 this season in duals against teams ranked in the top-five, but
the team emphasized its confidence going into the finals and the main goal is to simply keep improving whether the score indicates a win or a loss. “I still don’t think we’ve competed as well as everyone can at one time,” Heffernan said. “For us, it’s about getting our guys better. If you can’t worry about yourself at this time of the year and focus on what other teams are doing, that’s when you’re in trouble.”

The Illinois hockey team found a way to rebound against Ohio on Saturday night after a disappointing loss in the series opener on Friday. The Illini finished their regular season in Athens, Ohio, with a weekend series split. The team lost on Friday by a score of 4-0, but came away with a 3-2 shootout win on Saturday. Head coach Nick Fabbrini was hoping his team could pull off a sweep against the struggling Bobcats to build momentum heading into the CSCHL tournament, which starts next weekend at the Big Pond, but he was satisfied with the way his team responded to adversity. “Ohio is a really tough place to play at, so I think that from that aspect this weekend was a success to get one win out of there,” Fabbrini said. “We were really disappointed with the way we played on Friday night. We try to hold ourselves to a much higher standard than that.” The Illini managed only 20 shots in the game on Friday and were unable to convert on any of them, which led to the shutout loss. The team came out flat again in the first period on Friday, and Ohio made it pay by scoring three goals, two shorthanded.

Kopinski, who was a late scratch against San Jose State, made a strong return for the singles lineup for Illinois. Her biggest win of the weekend came in a 6 -1, 4-6, 6-2, win against Notre Dame’s No. 3 singles player Julie Vrabel. “Melissa played great, and not only in singles, but in doubles, too,” Dasso said. “She is an extremely tough player, and she is our team captain for a reason.” The two wins Sunday masked the disappointing loss Saturday, and it gives Illinois some momentum going into the Big Ten season. The players credited Dasso’s motivational techniques for the bounce-back wins on Sunday. “I told them if we come out and win these two matches, then we can have a weekend off,” Dasso said.

Bitter rivalry brings cricket to campus BY DRAKE PENA STAFF WRITER
Chants, cheers and boos echoed around the Central Illinois Mosque & Islamic Center on Saturday night as students and locals alike crowded in to watch cricket’s biggest international rivalry. India and Pakistan faced off in an ICC Cricket World Cup group stage match in Adelaide, Australia. Thousands of miles away, Indian and Pakistani fans in Champaign gathered to celebrate their favorite. Muhammad Asim, a gradu-
ate student in Engineering, said the rivalry transcends the sport itself. “There is a lack of cricket (in America),” Asim said. “It should be an integral part with such a large population of Indian and Pakistani students.” The watch party was a significant event for local cricket fans because India and Pakistan rarely get to play each other. The rivalry has gotten so intense that the two countries are only allowed to play against one another in international tournaments — that’s what made the
event unique. Playing each other for the first time since the 2011 World Cup, India versus Pakistan brought out excitement in fans similar to that of a Brazil-Argentina soccer game or a AmericaCanada hockey game. With their first meeting in October 1952, the matches between the countries have always been hotly contested. Overall, India is 6-0 against Pakistan in the World Cup. The event didn’t bring out exclusively South Asian students. Liam Kenny, a freshman in Engineering, attended the event hav-
ing never viewed a cricket match before. “The atmosphere is excited and very passionate,” Kenny said. “It is kind of like baseball, but obviously nothing we have here. If given the opportunity, I would definitely go to a match for a day.” Galina Eydel, a freshman in DGS, was also foreign to the game. She said she loved the event and if similar events were brought to campus, she would go because watching cricket shows interest in different cultures. The party took place in the main space of the mosque. From
the small children playing in the corner with a bat and ball, to the older folks sitting in the chairs and enjoying the sport, the event had something for of all ages, cultures and levels of knowledge of the sport. The game itself was another chapter in the history of Indian dominance of Pakistan in World Cup matches. Coming in as reigning World Cup champions, India defeated the Pakistani team by 76 runs.

New season high gives Illini a road win over Hawkeyes
Illini beat No. 2 Penn State, continue streak
BY ASHLEY WIJANGCO STAFF WRITER
BY DANIEL COLLINS STAFF WRITER
The Illinois men’s gymnastics team entered its meet against No. 2 Penn State Saturday at Huff Hall without its star gymnast — junior C.J. Maestas — and exited with a 441.300-434.500 win over one of the nation’s best. Illinois never trailed in the competition and seemed to have an increased level of energy and motivation against its undefeated opponent. “Rankings weren’t really much of a stress for us,” senior Jordan Valdez said. “We looked at it as having to bring a lot of intensity because C.J. wasn’t going to be here and we KEVIN VONGNAPHONE THE DAILY ILLINI have one of the best teams in the Illinois’ Bobby Baker performs on the pommel horse on Saturday.

A handful of high individual scores propelled the Illinois women’s gymnastics team to a strong 196.975-196.375 win over Iowa on Saturday at the Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa. “We took that next step that we’ve kind of been looking to take,” head coach Kim Landrus said. “We came in and, not only did they go 49 on every single event, but — the word for (Saturday) was ‘momentum.’ And I really think that from the beginning to the very end of the competition, we kept that momentum up and just kept building on our performances.” The score was close throughout the meet, but Illinois led the whole way to end with a new season-high total. It was the Illini’s strong performance on the balance beam, matched up with the Hawkeyes’ finish on floor that solidified the victory. Iowa finished with a meet-low 48.975 on floor. Meanwhile, Illinois recovered from last weekend’s two beam falls by hitting all six routines on the event, earning it a season-high 49.300. Sophomore Mary Jane Horth and senior Sunny Kato led the beam lineup, each scoring a 9.900. Senior Jordan Naleway led off on the event as opposed to junior Giana O’Connor, who had been struggling in that position. “As a team, we decided it would be better if someone else led off and I went later in the lineup,” O’Connor said. “Obviously, it worked very well (Saturday), and we’re very excited about how it went.” Horth and Kato also led the bars lineup to give the Illini a 49.325. Horth earned another 9.975, while Kato scored a 9.925, both of which tied the respective gymnast’s career-high. Those scores also helped bars remain the lone event this season that Illinois has scored at least a 49 on in every meet. Illinois’ prosperity continued on vault and floor, where the Illini scored a season-high on both events, with O’Connor earning near-perfect scores on each. On vault, the final score Illinois counted was O’Connor’s 9.950. The score tied Iowa’s 49.175 on bars to give Illinois the 98.50098.375 lead halfway through the
Illinois 196.975, Iowa 196.375 Summary:
The Illini scored a 49 on all events for just the second time this season, giving them a new season-high total. It also matches the best road score and second-best score in program history.
Key performer:
Junior Giana O’Connor scored a career-high 39.600 in the all-around, the secondbest in program history, and came home with the allaround, floor and vault titles.
Quote of the game:
Head coach Kim Landrus — “We took that next step that we’ve kind of been looking to take.”
Hidden stat:
Illinois scored six 9.9’s in the win.
Up next:
vs. Michigan State, 7 p.m. Friday at Huff Hall competition. From there, the Illini moved on to floor, where they had to count one score below a 9.8. But O’Connor’s floor routine was scored a 9.925, giving Illinois a 49.175 on the event before finishing off on beam. Those scores gave O’Connor the floor and vault titles, but it also helped her bring home the all-around title. She scored a career-high 39.600 in the allaround, which trails only Alina Weinstein’s program-best 39.625. With all of these high scores, this win has given the Illini more confidence moving forward with the season, but that’s not enough for them. They still want to hit a 197. “It really just shows us how much the little things and all those quarter tenths and half tenths count,” Horth said of the win. “So it’s definitely a confidence booster. We know we can go out and hit that 197 next time.”

Illini sprints to strong finish at Iowa State Classic BY WILL SMALL STAFF WRITER
The Illinois men’s track and field team garnered 15 top-10 finishers at the Iowa State Classic on Friday and Saturday in Ames, Iowa. Senior DJ Zahn placed first in the 400 meters with a time of 46.32 seconds, which is a new personal best. In the 4x400 relay, David Kendziera, Kenneth Allen, Joe McAsey

and Zahn placed second at 3:08.1, the fastest time of the season for the team. Head coach Mike Turk was surprised by the relay’s strong performance because McAsey had just finished a race before. “We weren’t even sure if Joe was going to run,” Turk said. “We were kind of surprised that we came up with the time that we did, but it was certainly a really great performance for them.” Junior Cam Viney and Kendziera finished first and second in the 60 meter hurdles with times of 7.89 and 7.97, respectively.

Illinois’ DJ Zahn crosses the finish line to win the 4x100 meter relay during the Illinois Twilight Track and Field meet at Illinois Soccer and Track Stadium, on April 12, 2014. Zahn placed first in the 400 meters at the Iowa State Classic this weekend with a time of 46.32 seconds, his new personal best. knows the duo is improving every day and said they ran a great race. Illinois has exhibited depth all season in the distance events, and this past weekend was no exception. In the mile, freshman Liam Markham and senior Bryce Basting finished in the top 15. Markham finished 13th with a time of 4:02.47 and Basting finished 15th at 4:03.45.
Another strong distance event for the Illini was the 3,000 meters, where junior Paul Zeman finished 19th with a time of 8:11.41, a new personal best. The time also puts Zeman in 10th on the Illinois alltime event list. Freshman Jonathan Wells and junior Branden Tanthavong put up strong performances for the Illini in the field events. Wells came in third in the high jump, clear-
ing 2.14 meters. Wells has been a strong competitor for Illinois, and Turk anticipates the good performances to continue. The triple jump was another top-five finish for the Illini. Tanthavong jumped 15.01 meters, enough for second place in the event. This was arguably Illinois’ best performance so far this season, and Turk believes his team is
starting to peak at the right time. Next up for Illinois is the Orange and Blue Open on Saturday at the Armory. “I think this meet helped round our whole team together,” Turk said. “We were just a much better team this week, all across the board, and I’m very pleased.”
